Waves Hotel & Spa

We’ve just arrived back from 10 nights at this hotel. We had a fantastic holiday and really enjoyed all the hotel had to offer. It’s clean, modern and well maintained, and our room was a great size. The restaurants provide good variety on a daily basis and the Kyma cafe was a great additional option for lunch or a snack. The free spa treatments were a nice touch and we made the most of the water sports included, motorised (ringos and water skiing) and non-motorised (paddle boarding, kayak and snorkelling). The beach was nice, but was quite small. That said we never had a problem getting a sun bed. The biggest highlight is the staff, who went out of their way to ensure we had a great time. The beach service was plentiful (thanks Akeel) and everyone else we came across was super friendly and helpful. I would happily recommend this hotel to friends and family.

We had an amazing time there! The staff members were so friendly and personable; they made us feel like we were home! We enjoyed all the meals - and it was nice having a little cafe to have a bite to eat between meals. The beach, just steps from the hotel, was gorgeous, as was the pool. And there were staff at the beach and pool to provide snacks and drinks as well as the equipment that we needed. I enjoyed a complimentary Pilates class with a gorgeous beach view; there were other classes, like yoga, as well. And my family and I enjoyed our 2 story rooms with a stocked fridge and 2 tv’s and a balcony! The view was amazing! If I am ever blessed to return to the beautiful island of Barbados, I will definitely stay at Waves; I loved this resort!

Such a good week spent at the Waves Hotel. It's a perfect setting and so relaxing. Our room was in the adults only section and was updated and perfect. A/C worked great snd was very quiet. The pool in the adults only section is lovely too. The beach is smaller due to natural erosion following a storm but it's perfect, with sun beds and water sports. The sea is clear and calm and so nice to walk into from the beach. We were all inclusive snd enjoyed all our meals in both restaurants and the cafe/coffee shop. The cocktails were great too with a bar in the main hotel and then drinks were delivered to us both on the beach and by the pool. All the staff were so nice they made our stay memorable, we can't wait until we can visit again !

Sitting here on our last day in paradise wishing we could stay longer. This is one the best hotels we’ve had the pleasure to stay at. The staff are all amazing and really try their best to make you feel welcome and happy, accommodating where possible every request. The guests are all really friendly too, bringing a family vibe to the place. Plenty to do or not to do, whatever suits you. The spa treatments were fab, and a nice touch, as was the food. Special shout outs to Antoine and Kevin who were so much fun, Jamar and Shemarque for the best cocktails and banter, Ether with the yummiest omelettes on the island (and morning cooking classes) and Astrid on reception with her wonderful smile and accommodating attitude. Plus Derrick the water taxi captain with all the tunes! And everyone else in between from the cleaners, chefs and managers, too many to mention. Huge thank you for making our trip so special and memorable, helping us celebrating our freedom birthdays in style. Tip: best trips are wildlife reserve and mount gay rum.. plus if you want a fun festival filled evening, the habour lights dinner is one not to miss! Also ocean view rooms are a must.

An absolute must if you're considering this hotel. The staff here are just superb. Its close to Bridgetown via a taxi. Nothing is to much trouble, everybody had a genuine smile on their face, super friendly and helpful. My wife is celiac and diabetic and her food needs were catered for. Change of gloves and equipment when prepping her food. Food was plentiful and delicious. There are 2 restaurants but the menu changes daily. We went on a snorkel trip via the hotel pick up was on a boat at the hotel was a great few hours and saw the turtles. The main pool is in the adults only section and there is a smaller pool which was barely used, people spend alot of time at the beach because it is perfectly blue sea and white sand. This hotel is an absolute must if you're going to Barbados you will not regret it and the staff will treat you like royalty.
